Arlington Heights
One of Portland’s upscale West Hills neighborhoods, Arlington Heights boasts proximity to some of the city’s most renowned parks and natural attractions. Located within the northern boundaries of the resplendent 410-acre Washington Park, the tranquil Japanese Garden, 190-acre Hoyt Arboretum, and International Rose Test Garden (with over 10,000 rose plantings from some 610 varieties), are practically in your own backyard.
Bordered by the neighborhoods of Sylvan Highlands, Kings Heights, and SW Portland, Arlington Heights is both lushly wooded and city adjacent, presenting residents with an abundance of options for recreation. Enjoy a leisurely lunch and an afternoon of window shopping in Portland’s boutique-laden Nob Hill area, or head to nearby Forest Park—one of the largest forested city parks in the country at over 5,000 acres—for some hiking, mountain biking, or horseback riding.
Considered one of Portland’s old grand neighborhoods, Arlington Heights is brimming with old-growth trees, scenic yards, and winding, narrow, hill-climbing roads. Homes in the neighborhood are classic and historic, ranging in style from English, Tudor, and cottage to ranch. Most of the homes here were built before 1939 and offer stunning views of downtown Portland and the surrounding mountains.
